if someone wants to go over what i have available and help me figure out what to do against esketon imperative list

#

<@&877300051985182740> anyone know how to best deal with the plasma flamers?

I think you just have to space out well, maybe take heavy armour, and hope

#

They're short ranged, so shoot them to bits at a distance where they can't return fire

#

or bait out the overwatch reaction elsewhere and charge them

what about when they come from drills

scarlet merlin
#

Interceptor, no?

quasi heath
cerulean hemlock
#

my issue so far is the use of drills bringing them in and one squad having the killing power to wipe my 10 man gv squad even with argel to give the 5++, if i kill the drill with interceptor maybe a few will die

#

also most of my units will be moving less and good odds he places the special deadly terrain markers near my valuble stuff

Or cataphractiis, whatever doesnt breach, you're saving on a rerollable 2+

#

@analog dock any recs to deal with cynobium or a block of companions that have corswain

Beg for the Emperor's mercy, upon your knees, before the Angels of Death.

#

Is my recommendation

#

Otherwise, unless they have hunters of beasts, contemptors should put in work in melee

#

For the cenobites

cerulean hemlock
#

do they get murderous strike?

#

cause then each hit will do d3 each hit

analog dock
#

They have murderous strike 5+ on the swords

scarlet merlin
#

Oh yeah, breaching does nothing to vehicles

analog dock
#

Unless the also have hunters of beasts, you should be mostly fine

cerulean hemlock
#

they are not vehicles

#

so breaching works

analog dock
#

Mhm

scarlet merlin
#

I meant for the Interemptors

brisk abyss
#

Out range em.

#

Or something, I dunno

#

I don't run em

cerulean hemlock
#

a vehicle will be fine its about whats not in them, last time i played he went first and got my spartan to 1 hp so i had to dissembark allowing my 1000pt squad of gv and wo characters to be 1 turned by a squad

#

Are you watching your spacings? Also idk about the other dark angels but i dont know any of your acronyms/nue

cerulean hemlock
#

acronyms/nue?

analog dock
#

Its a tone tag, in saying i dont know them in a neutral manner

cerulean hemlock
#

also im ranting a bit i guess it just feels bad that one of those squads costs less than my 10 man warpfire squad which overall is less tanky, less leadership, less abilities, and way less shots

#

Well, the Eskaton Imperative and interemptors in particular are meant to, excuse my crude expression, murderfuck infantry of all flavors like nobodys business

analog dock
#

Mhm try bringing some anti infantry tanks
